Expert Opinion

The device is surely affordable with a 7-inch display, but it does not compete well with original Google Nexus 7 which is slightly 1 year older then HP 7 Plus. And in some of online retailor sites you can even find 32GB model of original Nexus 7 with a price tag of $99. Although the Nexus 7 comes with only a front camera but still it’s a best choice over HP 7 Plus. And you can even find more tablets in market of local companies as well.
